Copper Strainers
Parker's Copper Strainers are used in refrigeration and
air conditioning systems to filter sediment, to protect
refrigerant metering devices such as capillary tubing,
and to protect other components such as valves and
compressors. Screen sizes are selected to ensure that
all targeted amounts and sizes of particles are trapped
without causing substantial pressure drop.
